Stumbled upon this gem on our way from Texas to Georgia. So thankful we choose this place over the myriad of other restaurants we came across. Perfect location (near the university). There was a long line, but surprisingly we didn't have to wait too long. The service was excellent (very friendly guy who served us), the food was awesome and the whole place was a great vibe.
Will definitely be visiting again next time I'm in Memphis!!

Great local diner with a great atmosphere.
Interesting dishes, I got the Gyro omelet and cheese grits, which was filling and delicious. Waitress gave me a little glass syrup jar w/ brother juniper on the label 💯
Excellent breakfast, set in an old town style breakfast diner type establishment. Friendly staff, adequate service, minimal wait time.
Had the Cinnamon Roll Pancakes at the recommendation of my server. Comes with 2 large pan cakes with swirls of icing on each cake. Perhaps the ONLY pancake I've ever eaten without syrup since the swirls of icing were moist. These cakes are served with a small personalized container of Maple Syrup, which I sampled on Cake #2. Both the plate and top of cakes were dusted with a cinnamon sugar mix, which keeps the cakes directly off the plate, making them slightly easier to eat than normal.
If I return, I'll be trying the Chocolate Chip pancakes, as this would have been my alternative choice. 4.8 Stars on this one. Excellent breakfast.

I absolutely love the food and service and will definitely return when I come back to town. I spoke to some customers as I was walking into the restaurant and asked how the food was and they stated the food was excellent and they were right. The people were nice as well and the food was prepared quickly. I had the San Diegan open face omelet, cheesy grits, biscuit and cinnamon roll pancakes. The cheesy grits were a little salty for me but I loved everything else and I stand behind the 5-stars. I recommend Brother Juniper's definitely good prices, great food, quick service and polite staff. I have provided pictures unfortunately I ate the cinnamon roll pancakes so quickly I did not get a picture but trust me they were so good.

Cinnamon Roll Pancakes Huge
This Memphis breakfast institution lives up to the hype. It isn’t glamorous but it is a comfortable place to get the best breakfast anywhere. Everything I’ve had here is excellent from the biscuits to the bacon to the vegan dishes. Make sure you get a potato dish or the home fries. It is crowded in the morning, but 11:00 is a good time to go during the week to get seated right away.

Fries
The home fries are as good as everyone says they are. Don't walk, run and order some no matter what you get!
The steak Benedict wasn't as I was expecting but everything was very well cooked and filling. Definitely generous portions.
We had no wait for 2 at 9am on a Friday.
